Chapter 345 – The Creature From The Antique Gold Coin
TL : GoldenLung
Lan Xuanyu suddenly became more curious, “What is it for?”
Qian Lei said: “Storage. In the Spirit Hall era 30,000 years ago, soul storage devices were not as developed as it is now. At that time, a storage’s capacity was very small, and one cubic meter was considered very good. They all relied on soul masters to engrave the array through the use of their soul power and Martial Soul’s peculiarity, making the production cost very high. Therefore, only a few nobles could have them. And most of them were powerful soul masters. If this coin is really a storage device from that era then let’s not talk about any valuable things in it, even if it was mundane objects, how much do you think antiques such from 30,000 years ago are worth ? Hehehehe. We are rich!”
Lan Xuanyu looked at Qian Lei, then at the gold coin, and suddenly felt admiration for him. This guy was really reliable when it came to money !
Qian Lei didn’t notice Lan Xuanyu’s look, and he was still muttering: “Although you can’t buy emblems with federal coins at the academy, we can still use them at the Shrek House ! After we sell it, by my estimations earning millions of federal coins is not impossible. If we’re lucky, with some kind of treasure in it, we won’t have to worry anymore about cultivation resources in the future. Then you, me, Frenzie, with the resources for cultivation we’ll have for the three of us, we will definitely surpass the others.”
Lan Xuanyu couldn’t help saying: “Fatty, this is yours, it’s your finding, you don’t have to share it with us.”
Qian Lei was taken aback, suddenly raised his head and looked at Lan Xuanyu, his eyes suddenly became a little aggrieved, “Xuanyu, what do you mean? Are you looking down on me? Did I say this when you gave me your emblems? We’re brothers, what’s mine is yours. Although I love money, how can it even compare to my brothers ? Without you, I can’t even get in Shrek. My harvest is everyone’s harvest! If you ever say that again, we’re no longer brothers. Let me tell you that this Fatty is very angry!”
Looking at his appearance, Lan Xuanyu smiled, a very bright one and said, “Okay, I was wrong, I’m sorry, I apologize to you.”
He was really happy, and his heart is very, very warm. Yes! Between brothers, they did not even need to talk about sharing !
“That…” Qian Lei suddenly looked at Lan Xuanyu with some hesitation, even taking some precautions.
“What’s the matter?” Could it be that he was already going back on his words ? Lan Xuanyu looked at him with some doubts.
Qian Lei whispered: “Wealth is merely worldly possessions, Xuanyu, you must promise me something! You already have Qianqiu, don’t steal Mengqin from me! I have set my eyes on her. Her white hair is so beautiful and makes her look so ethereal. When I grow up, I will definitely chase her! If you, who’s so good-looking, were to compete with me, I won’t have any chance. Don’t take this away from me !”
Lan Xuanyu rolled his eyes, “How old are you? In my dad’s words, you haven’t grown your hair yet, and you are already thinking about that. Besides, don’t people say brothers are like your hand and feet, women are like clothes?”
Qian Lei said irritably, “That’s what all singles say. There’s another sentence after that, if you want to grab my clothes, I’ll chop off your hands and feet.”
Lan Xuanyu looked weird, “I didn’t expect you to be a guy who cared more about his lover than friends !”
Qian Lei snorted, “Brothers are for a lifetime, but my wife is also for a lifetime. Of course she’s important. Boss, promise me, okay? You can’t chase Mengqin.”
“Okay, okay. The most important thing for you now is whether you can open this antique gold coin, and make sure whether this is a real soul storage device. If you want to chase Lan Mengqin, you have to work hard to become stronger. She is a very proud girl. If you are not strong enough, she will probably look down on you.”
“Hmph, I am the future summoning master. I will definitely catch up to her. Let me think a little ! My dad told me that this kind of antique is actually quite easy to open. It’s just that most people don’t think of it. There is one universal opening method, let me try.”
While talking, he took out the antique coin, and after playing with it a few times, he muttered, “I think it should be like this.”
While talking, he used his thumb and index finger to pinch the center of the two front sides respectively, then he put it in front of his face, and blew vigorously at the edge of the coin.
“Clang!” A buzzing sound resonated, and Qian Lei quickly poured his soul power.
Suddenly, a golden light flashed on the antique coin, and then a strange scene suddenly appeared. The pattern on the coin moved rhythmically as if it had come to life. Qian Lei was overjoyed, “It’s done!”
He shook his hand violently and threw the coin towards the ground. Suddenly, a golden light emerged from the money, and an object fell on the ground.
“Wahahahaha, we’re rich, we’re rich. Boss, just with this still-usable antique soul storage device alone, it’s worth more than a million federal coins, at least a few millions ! Wahahahaha. Let me see what good stuff is inside!”
While talking, Qian Lei gazed at the thing on the ground happily.
Lan Xuanyu was the same, both of them cast their eyes on the object on the ground.
It was a bag, not small in size. The bag looked like it was made from woven vines, the vine was particularly verdant. Even after who knows how many years have passed, there is still a strong life aura lingering on it. A halo was circulating through it, even the bag seemed to be of great value.
The bag was closely knit, and there were two straps hanging aside.
Qian Lei hurriedly squatted down and untied it.
There was something bulging in the bag. This bag looked so beautiful, and there is a high probability that its contents were of high value!
At this moment, even Lan Xuanyu’s heartbeat couldn’t help quickening up. Could it be that they really struck gold ?
As Qian Lei opened the bag, the two of them immediately looked inside. After that one look, they became dumbfounded at the same time.
In the emerald green rattan bag, there was only one thing, or in more correct terms, a body.
The body was curled up, and didn’t look big. It had pale yellow hair, spread unevenly. It seemed to be an animal or a soul beast?
How many years had it been? Why was there such a thing in this bag?
Qian Lei had countless guesses coursing through his mind at that moment, but there was no way he could guess it. How the heck did he make such an existence appear.
He subconsciously reached out and touched it, and then his whole person bounced as if he had received an electric shock.
Lan Xuanyu got scared by his reaction, and hurriedly jumped back, “What are you doing?”
Qian Lei pointed at the body with a look of horror and said, “Warm, warm ? It can’t be still alive, right?”
Lan Xuanyu was also dumbfounded, “Warm ?”
The body didn’t move, the two looked at each other, then squatted down again, and Lan Xuanyu tried to touch it lightly.
As Qian Lei said, it was really warm. Therefore, this was not a corpse, nor a mannequin. Probably a living creature?
However, this storage coin probably had a history of tens of thousands of years. Could it be said that this was a creature from tens of thousands of years ago? It’s been tens of thousands of years, and it didn’t die inside a storage coin ? How was this possible!
After staring dumbedfully for a while, Qian Lei looked at Lan Xuanyu and said, “Xuanyu, I think we have made a fortune.”
Lan Xuanyu asked in confusion: “Do you know this creature? I have seen many ancient soul beasts with my father since I was a kid, but I don’t have any recollection of this !”
They had now clearly seen the appearance of the creature, which looked a bit like a gorilla, but there was no soul power fluctuation from its body, which meant that it was not a soul beast. Its hair was sparse, even a bit ugly to be honest. Its eyes were closed tightly, and its body curled up and emaciated. It didn’t look very pretty with its sparse and dull hair.
